My goal is to aid students in the best possible way by providing successful strategies I used to perform well on standardized tests and adapting them to the needs of the student. I have even helped students pass classes in less comfortable areas such as Environmental Science using these strategies.

As a teacher, my goal is to figure out the best way that each student retains information and from there become a facilitator of learning. It is much easier for people to improve when they are in the driver's seat, you just have to find the best vehicle.

...left teaching due to the over politization of the profession. Students aren't in a one-to-one environment getting the attention they need to feel as successful as possible.
